Best Splurges Poems


Ann Romney's Blouse
Mitt Romney’s wife was criticized
(Though she was not defensive)
Because she chose to wear a blouse
Considered quite expensive.

She wore it on a TV show
So she would look her best,
But journalists decided that
She’d failed the litmus test.

All those who like to criticize
Were ready with their clucks,
Delighted to...

A Sinner Like God
“I have forgiven mother”
She tarries with hope
that the good woman will pray her clemency for her own sins, 
but that hour is expired; 
Gee grew a strong wit
"Mother is no longer my burden"
Jesus came from hard conscience to corroborate her lies
The WORD written in black...

Against That Pale And Ashen Cold Gray Sky

Dark colors of oak branches spreading high,
beds of Autumn's fallen leaves are resting.  
Against that pale and ashen cold gray sky,
Nature is contemplating and testing.

Winter waits its rebirth in sweet repose,
Passing days yield to time's eternal ways;
Clouds...

I Don'T Write
My hands are either blessed or possessed

I feel as if I don't write

But that my spirit pours prophetic words onto the page

The more I grow and age

The less I have control over these urges

Much less a hobby, these are emotional splurges

I write the words in...

Alliteration #2: 
SURREAL


Sense sweet soul stirrings
Feel flavours fleeting


Realise rapture's rooms
Being blesses bloom


Claim cheer's charming choice
Promise piquant poise


Fleeting form figures
Lasting love lingers


Taste troubling tensions
Aim artful action


Plunder primal poise
Value vibrant voice


Silence splurges stains
Stillness sows sweet strains


Sightsee simple seer
Quiet query queues *****


Zooming zealous zest
Freedom feasting fest

Shadows and Lines
My dear friend and worst foe, 
you follow me wherever I go,
towering above me sometimes, 
falling behind at other times.

On sunny days, my braids I admired, for hours on end,
as you showed them swing,  over the day growing longer.
On stormy nights, while we kids...

The Internet Eats Itself Whilst Diseased Fools Swear Heartily
abolished beheadings conspire delicately. egotistically fawning grooves hinder intricate juries.
keeping luxurious meanders. nocturnal outlets permeate quintessentially. random splurges 
transcend universal victories. whispering xylenics yearn zoomingly....

Dust jubilee
and mass of creaky earth cakes,
skin of flakes and clone 
of Negev, their earth, their earhth.

and pushed her odyssey 
to a million.

Tongues line bricks

The Sanctity of a Damsel Not On Sale
Seldom mistaken
A besotted bloke in New York
In love taken and shaken
Dreaming of an infatuation stroke

Bakes in his mind
A love niche his heart to gladden
Despite the labour grind
Of the love burden

Strutting his manifesto
Under a moonlight in a tryst
That delights his toe
To roll out a love feast

The...

My Best
for all your
confusion, 
your forgetfulness
your awkward questions
and masterful responses
your visits cut short
coversations drawn out
your uncertainty
your innocence
your unthoughtful splurges
and quiet apologies

for all your pauses
and drawn breaths

throughout your day
for every song you play

i love you more
than i can find the guts
to say...

Long-Lost
You bump into a former friend
You haven’t seen in years,
And catch up on the latest news
Of families and careers.

But then you start to reminisce
And all the time gone by
Just melts away, despite the truth
A mirror won’t deny.

You laugh and conjure up the tales
Of escapades long...

Power Angle
books and wheels
some of us spills the feel out
then we get out
suddenly a couple emmerges
he splurges on himself a drink
thats the thing
thats your big man
then his hand turns rich
then the son of a jerk gets sick

he marry you
then he improves
and your through

The Key Bridge and Your Voice

The voices were painfully appalling and reeked of similarities to the mildly unpleasant mess of...

I made a noose out of the stars
Of then,
Smoke of a squandered summer morn
The barrel of a summer afternoon 
And the spittle of the soundless shots of the stars within a summer eve
Homeless homage, tainted talent awaits to watch and berate
Wilting wonders to wound a heart the size of a horse
Hoarse to...
